1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

In Europe, non-profit organisations provide health care to undocumented immigrants (UDM), filling the gaps left by national healthcare systems: this approach is referred as "structural compensation". Integrating beneficiaries in developing interventions can be a source of effectiveness, but evidence shows that UDM involvement is difficult. This scoping review aimed to identify best practices related to participative approaches in structural compensation interventions targeting UDM. Four electronic databases were searched. Nine studies, which met the final inclusion criteria, reported a variety of health interventions. Findings showed a limited but diverse use of participatory approaches. Furthermore, the structural compensation organisations could be facilitators to support the participation of UDM. Further research is needed to better understand structural compensation and how it is used in practice. This will help develop an appropriate response to participative approaches with UDM.
